Mp2n

Mp2n is a protein found in humans and other mammals. Its full name is M-phase phosphoprotein 2 nuclear. It is involved in the regulation of cell division. Specifically, Mp2n plays a role in the process of mitosis, which is the division of a cell nucleus. It is thought to be a component of the kinetochore, a complex protein structure that forms at the centromere of chromosomes and is essential for chromosome segregation during cell division. Mp2n has been identified in various cell types and its expression levels can vary depending on the cell cycle stage. Research suggests it may interact with other proteins involved in spindle assembly and chromosome attachment. The exact mechanisms of Mp2n's function are still being investigated, but its involvement in critical cell division processes makes it a protein of interest for understanding cellular regulation and potential implications in diseases involving abnormal cell proliferation.
